HQPlayer Embedded - not buying

Am I understanding correctly that you are able to use HQPlayer to for playing Apple Music in this configuration?

I mean you can configure RPi4 as HQP OS’s “UAC2 input” for your PC/Mac or iOS devices.

RPi4’s USB type-C connector is not only for power supply but also can be the USB input:

1. add dtoverlay=dwc2 in the config.txt
2. add this line to hqplayerd.xml

<input channels="2" device="UAC2" format="auto" name="UAC2" pack_sdm="1" period_time="100" type="uac2">

If you want to use this trick for iOS devices, please use powered USB hub. RPi4 still need 5V to boot. Photo shows iPhone → iFi iUSB3 → RPi4 → iFi DAC for AM or other music player upsampling.
